I incurred expenses due to a lengthy flight delay that involved thunderstorms in NJ and then a flight control bottleneck. AIG denied my claim saying that air traffic control issues are an excluded cause. I don't doubt that but why? It feels like they deliberately planted odd loopholes to save themselves some $ and I'm feeling like "why do I even buy travel insurance?!"
